This hospital sucks. My son was sent here from another hospital. We were in the triage area for almost 2 hours before going to a room. We were told that the nurse would be right in. We are still waiting after 15 minutes while nurses are just standing around talking. My definition of right in is definitely different than the medical staffs. (2 weeks ago)

I agree with garbage guy. They’re definitely not known for their speedy service. We’ve been here since 9:30 am and it’s almost 3:40 pm now. Haven’t seen a doctor, they keep telling us to wait and wait and wait. Bathroom was dirty, the nurses sat around as I watched them for the longest time on their phones talking about cruses. They’re starving my DIABETIC sister, AND they didn’t even test her blood sugar levels. For an emergency room no one seems to be acting like it’s an emergency. We’ve had better luck at emurgent care. The only good thing about this visit so far is that the receptionist when we checked in this morning was very nice. Also, parking is NO WHERE NEAR EASY. Does anyone actually look at these? Or is this going to be another CMH hospital where their known for people going there to die. If I could put negative stars I would. (a month ago)

I had to be transferred from CMH. The care I was given at Albany Med was terrific. Great support staff, wonderful nurses. Food not so good. And beds are not as up to date as they could be. The whole hospital needs an upgrade internally. But very thankful to the folks who took such good care of me, especially those down in VIR. (3 weeks ago)

Oh boy, I’m back for ANOTHER bad review. I now have to bring my sister to a different hospital because Albany med is denying her care because her insurance isn’t working right now (which is highly illegal by the way). They’re trying to send her home w/ a drain tube still hanging out of her coming from her intestines (she got abdominal surgery- anyone who’s had it or knows of it before will know what I’m talking about). It’s been 2 days since the surgery and she hasn’t not made a bowel movement, which is very bad and can kill her (no, not exaggerating). It’s it illegal for doctors to deny a patient care because of insurance reasons (which is in the handbook and in the oath that they’re REQUIRED to take before even training to become a doctor) so once I find out who her doctor was, guess who’s losing their 200,000 (a month ago)

My deepest gratitude and big Thank you to all the doctors,my hero Dr.Kaufman and his team,nurses and all medical stuff Terry,Allie,Anna,Zach,sorry I was not well enough to remember all,who worked around the clock to make sure that we can beat this.
